Negative aspects of behaviour on the internet
I am uncomfortable with the anonymity that some people hide behind on the internet.
However,I understand the reasons why in the paid sex industry.
The difficulty that I have on forums, is when trolls come on, or members hide behind handles to start flaming.
I read stories of lies deceit, betrayal, cons, adultery, and stalkings all on the wonderful world wide web.
I have met a number of clients and escorts, who made contact via messageboards, and their real life personas are nothing like their online personas.
My preference is definitely for face to face communication.
Update
I have had requests to add an email subscription to my blog. You can now subscribe, and receive my posts via email, there is a button at the top right hand corner of the blog. This saves some of you visiting the blog, and is also for those of you who cannot be bothered to subscribe to the feeds.
Have a good week.

I totally agree with you. Face to face communication allow a "next step" towards real understanding and provides a lot of details about who stand in fron of you!
As someone who can't discuss this job with friends or family, I have found the forums to be something of a lifeline when I have had a problem or a query, or just wanting banter.
I have met some really good people through the message forums, and equally so through this line of work......... but.... I have also encountered bitter people, liars. cheats and of course the bullies this industry appears to attract. I have been the brunt of narrow minded people's anger and hate.
I watch these idiots ruin their own lives because power goes to their heads and then watch someone else take them down.
These days I am careful with my friends. I keep the few I have close, but I have to say I would not be human if I did not want to hit back every now and then. Luckily I am grounded and better things to do with my life than cross the line between cyber and real life.

Nice and nasty,
Thank you for stopping by.
Jo,
Thank you for your comments. I have met some nice people too, through forums.
It is the dark side that can get out of control,if it is not managed properly.

Nothing secret about me. You can see my picture by clicking on my name.
Yes, the prostitution business is full of horrid people, but most of them are not women!

Entre Amigos,
Thank you for your comments. You are so perceptive,lol.
Beau,
Thank you for your comments. It is sad,but I guess like anything in life there is a dark side. The difficulty for me is the lawlessness on the internet.

I suppose the price of the anonymity on the 'net is the chance of encountering deceitful people (chance? -- it is a lock you will encounter people like that on here).
The anonymity is nice for these "confessional" blogs. I have another blog where I write about world events -- under full disclosure of who I am. It just depends on what you are trying to accomplish.
